Common Name: Fraser Photinia, Photinia Red Robin, Christmas Berry or some of you refer to it as "that red tipped tree"
Climate: This guy is suitable for most climates around Australia as it copes with humidity and also frosts once established
Native: No I'm not!
Soil: Red Robin can deal with most soil types but good drainage is important they don’t like wet feet.
Sun: These babies prefer full sun but you can get away with planting them in part shade - how good it that?
Water: Water well until established, once established these guys are pretty drought tolerant and need very little water another bonus!
Uses: If you are after a tall screening hedge for privacy reasons this is for you or if you just want to add a pop of colour to the garden you can plant it as a small specimen tree
Height: 3-4m
Width: 2-3m
Current Size: 20-25 cm tall
Recommended Spacing: For fast results plant 60cm apart or if you have the time and patience you could go 100cm apart
Growth Rate: Fast! Expect to see 50cm of growth every year
Maintenance: These guys really don’t need much maintenance once established. Give it a light prune to maintain shape and your desired height. If you have poor soil you can give them a feed in Spring.
Problems: You won’t have many problems however if the Photinia Red Robin is too wet they are more susceptible to fungal issues so watch the watering.
